Your the man with the nice smell.

I have been using this fragrance, for 47 years. I continue to receive more compliments today than I used to, probably because of the habit of greeting ladies with a kiss on the cheek, French style.

A Mediterranean Classic

Acqua di Selva has been in my collection since 1987 and I still love it today. There's nothing quite like the fresh minty invigorating outdoorsy scent of this Classic. A simple yet fantastic fragrance that I simply love and I'll never forget the first time I smelled it on someone else. I think I was in a trance and from then on I was absolutely hooked!! The only negative if there is one is the poor longevity and performance of this Eau de Cologne. I think I'd love it even more if they came out with a stronger version but I'm not gonna hold my breath lol

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

A unique and enticing scent

This scent has been around for sometime now and came to my attention when it was mentioned by a guest on a podcast. This is such a unique and enticing scent. It really does take you away and make you feel like you are on a early-twentieth Century adventure of self-discovery across the globe. The scent is sure to draw compliments for all you come into contact with.
